Short of time, but want to ride a two-day charity event this summer? Wondering how to fit in the necessary training? Not sure what you need to do to get ready to ride 90km-120km (54-70 miles) for two consecutive days?

Even if you’re on a limited time budget, Diane’s Training for a Two-Day Charity Ride for the Time-Starved Cyclist will get you in shape for your two-day event. You’ll be fit, confident that you can easily cover the distance, and have fun doing it.

I just bought it and read through it…I should’ve bought it 2mos. ago! I’m doing the Enbridge Ride next month and due to health reasons haven’t really done too much training for it. Nothing like cramming for a 200+km ride eh?
The nutritional info is exactly what I’ve been looking for.

I checked with Diane and she said her program would work for you. There’s an optional weekly ride to train for the two-day event. You would have to do that in addition to the rest of the program to be prepared for your three-day event.
